This is my last egg for this Easter series. The Kelch Rocaille Egg by Fabergé is made of varicolored gold, platinum, rose cut diamonds, translucent green enamel and silk lining. The heart surprise is made of gold, rose-cut diamonds, rose and white enamel. Made in 1902, Alexander Kelch gave the Faberge "Kelch Rocaille Egg'' to his wife, Barbara, but paid for it with her money. This is the fifth in a series of seven eggs made for the industrialist Alexander Kelch.
Rising up from the tube into downtown, we first peered upon Westminster Palace and Big Ben. Right there on the corner by the entrance to the tube, is Boadicea. Boudica, as she is sometime referred to, was a great queen of Norfolk in the east of England during Roman times. She led a mass uprising against the occupying Roman forces. She was noted for her fearlessness in battle and has always been considered as England's first 'Iron Lady'.
